Arcadi Volodos auf dem Klavierfestival Ruhr 2020

(piano & electronics & lights)

Francesco Tristano, a graduate of the famous Juilliard School, is a young artist who is celebrated worldwide as a classical pianist, but who also likes to extend his concerts with a really good DJ set.

He is a penetrating, intellectual artist, who at the same time brings the music from the head to the legs and loves to combine the good old piano with electronics. This artist has deeply inhaled the spirit of innovation. Francesco Tristano comes to the Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche with Bach, Berio, Xenakis and his own works: “My Oscillate programme is a way I imagine a piano recital. Franz Liszt once invented this concert format in the second half of the 19th century. I am rethinking it in my present day. The piano recital should reflect the futuristic component of the instrument and be meaningful, indeed: relevant for the audience!”

Francesco Tristano

“Music is music”. This is what Alban Berg responded to George Gershwin in Paris during the spring of 1928, as to why there was no distinction between what we consider “educated” music and “popular” music. Francesco Tristano has endorsed this quote over the last decade with his work; combining piano and synthesizer, between the scores of Johann Sebastian Bach – and also Frescobaldi, Berio, Buxtehude, Stravinsky, and Gershwin, among others – and the latest production and sequencing tools.
